I just purchased these pipes somewhat impulsivley and sort of by accident I pushed the confirm sale button. ..while i was trying to get a hold of Patrick, Kevin Reitman, David Power, Brad Angus just to learn more about them..couldnt raise anybody and before ya know it " you purchased" ..I can't imagine going wrong here because I am aware of Brads fine work....but if I made a mistake please PM me on it. And if anyone has abotu 5k to lend me ...the misses is gonna freak.. .I'll be selling some other pipes to defray the cost.stay tuned or in tune
I dont think you can go too wrong with that set. I don't know it specifically, but I have played Brad's stuff (b chanter and now a full set) for a while now and I have had no problems. great tonal color, good e's with various reeds, great responsiveness for super tight playing plus I have had very good luck tweaking/adjusting reeds for climate etc. I was wondering how long it would last up there as that is a pretty good discount.
Enjoy it. I had to trade my wife two 10 day vacations without the kids (Mexico and Alaska) for my full set.

Who?
Maybe I'll change my name to "i before e, two n's"
I know that set, played it a few times my ownself and it's a good machine, early work for Brad. Have fun with them!
I had a Bb chanter by him. I sadly had to sell it because I could not take the finger stretch. It was a wonderful chanter. I want to bug him about making me a C# set when I get the cash.
Brad's craftsmanship is over the top, he rolls all his ferrals and really goes all out with turning and aesthetic. The overall effect of the pipes is person is great. He has a half set of narrow bore D pipes out here that are some of the most beautiful pipes I have seen.
We have two Angus D narrow bore half sets out here. They are in tune, and have a VERY nice tone and response. Brad is also really helpful as a pipemaker with any problems you might have, and unlike many pipemakers Brad can keep to a delivery schedule. A very hardworking guy.
As it turns out I was duped into thinking I had accidently pushed the "confirm sale" button on these pipes...My wife had accessed the site and purchased them after I had intitially called her about the proposed purrchase while I was doing homework on the set I go back to Ebay and find out I had purchased........she then clandestinely accessed and arranged payment and all ..the pipes are on the way ...God I Love her!!! she plays fiddle and is partial to the C pipes.
I expect some reed work when the pipes arrive and will keep all posted.
